    We could tell when the tree started to sway as you approached the top. Was this one of the taller trees you've had to cut down? Great job, as always

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  2 года назад +2

      I'd say top 10 in terms of height around here. When I was looking at the footage I thought I should have taken in the view a bit more up top :)

    I've never climbed a white pine before. Thanks for all the great detail about them. Today I mulched up about 100 pounds of branches into wood chips and put a lot of them by the lilac I put in the other day. I set up a motor arbor driving 3 wire wheels in my shed so I can leave the dirt outside. In the evening I went and saw a great band called "Cabin Fever" that was really good. Two acoustic guitar players.

    Love those pines... But my friend one very important part about those 🌲.. Sooooooooooo much sap and goo that makes you're climbing devices your chainsaw and your gloves just full of pitch😳😳😳.. I always go though about 2 pairs of gloves at least while removing those trees....

      You're absolutely right. I've tapped a few of my other mufflers and it makes a big difference. Have you advanced the timing on the 2511? Haven't done that yet myself

    I finally got caught up, now I'm waiting for the next project. I find it interesting that as I'm watching you, I'm hoping that you don't fall, and I have to remind myself that you probably wouldn't be posting the video if you did, duh! Yep, I get caught up in your tree projects. I also appreciate that you clean up after yourself and leave the area looking better than when you arrived. Stay safe.

    Nice job and video! Did you have some extra fuel / bar oil up there, or were they sending it up to you? Nice on the white pine ... what do you think of red pines?

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  2 года назад

      No need for extra fuel on that one -- only burned up half a tank. :) Red pines are excellent to climb ... and I planted about 50 of them for a wind break a while back. Great trees

    Hey Spencer? Forgot to ask u ...how come you never use rope bags. I assume it's because of where u store your ropes I'm the truck I'm quessing.once I got bags Man couldn't back grew up in tree services that made me do it the old one arm then twist way.never did the rock climb way.but love the bags specially when there something to drape it over?

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  10 месяцев назад

      It's funny you should ask, buddy: I picked up a decent rope bag this week and will be testing it out on tomorrow's job. You know how it is: ya get used to one way of doing things and it's hard to break the habit. So I'm testing out the bag method this week! :)
